The Southern Adirondack Tobacco Free Coalition (SATFC) is a grassroots coalition of local agencies and individuals working together to reduce the prevalence of tobacco use and to promote healthy communities.  SATFC serves Saratoga, Warren and Washington counties in New York State.  The Coalition is funded by the New York State Department of Health Tobacco Control Program.

SATFC staff and members engage community leaders and the public in policy development to reduce the harm of tobacco at the local level; negotiate with local stakeholders to adopt resolutions that will restrict the tobacco industry presence, and work with policy makers to de-normalize tobacco use and eliminate exposure to secondhand smoke.

The SATFC office in Saratoga Springs can be reached at (518) 581-1230.
